Chapter 135: Discovery
"What's going on? The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, and His Majesty will match," Gu Sheng said coldly.
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
Gu Zhixi asked.
"What's the matter?"
Gu Sheng said coldly: "As a member of the Gu family, your majesty has to worry about the marriage matter, you don't reflect on yourself, but you want to splash dirty water on the heads of others." ”
"Your father is really dutiful."
Gu Zhixi sneered.
For so many years, he has indeed neglected to raise the heirs of his family.
But he did have a heart to teach.
However, the eldest son was so outstanding when he was a child that he was ashamed of himself, and his temperament was so cold that it made people shudder, and after one or two times, he stopped teaching.
As for Erlang, he was regarded as a treasure by the Niu family, for fear that he would bump into it, he hated the Niu family, and he didn't want to have anything close to him.
"If you don't dislike it, you can use it."
"No need," Gu Sheng said coldly, "I've taken care of the rest of the things, you have to bother." ”
Gu Zhixi sighed, and when he saw someone coming out of the house, he hurriedly hid his face and left.
Gu Sheng stared at his back coldly, and only then did he step inside.
Ma Tang waited at the gate of the courtyard early in the morning.
Seeing him come back, he hurriedly greeted him, "Lang Jun, Madame ordered someone to spread the word, saying that the lonely bamboo courtyard next door is spacious and has a good view, and it can be used as a new house." ”
Gu Sheng's footsteps paused, and his face turned cold.
Back then, Gu Zhixi was a vassal and elegant, so he had to make such a place.
Niu fought with him for a while, but he couldn't help but build a yard in the north corner of the house.
It's just that the Niu family deliberately destroyed and removed all the surrounding scenery, except for the huge lonely bamboo courtyard, except for the bamboo, which is a barren grass.
Now the grass grows fast and tall, and the houses are so rough that they will fall down when the wind blows.
"Don't bother, you just keep the yard."
At this time, Gu Sheng was very glad for his previous decision.
Ma Tang was a little confused, although the wedding is scheduled for next year, but with the current situation in the house, preparations will start this year.
After all, the housewife in the house has always looked at the master unpleasantly, and many things need to be done by themselves.
Gu Sheng had already entered, changed into his regular clothes, and frowned when he turned his head and didn't see Ma Tang.
Ma Tang hurried in to serve.
"Master, see if it's time to prepare the dowry that was sent over."
Gu Sheng pinched his fingers and thought for a while, then instructed him to come over, and explained in a low voice: "You quietly pick some sensible ones and send them to the side of Neidong Street earlier, and then find a craftsman from the governor, and let him put the yard in a good place." ”
"The main courtyard and the side courtyard are set aside, and the others don't have to be too exquisite, just ...... It was built in the style of the Cheng family's courtyard. ”
Ma Tang received the order and served Gu Sheng to eat and rest.
The next day, Gu Sheng came to Fusi, and before he could sit down, the rat rushed in.
"Boss, look," he excitedly unfolded his confession.
After Gu Sheng took a closer look, his face suddenly changed.
"He even resells illicit salt and sells iron ore?"
The mouse stayed up all night, his eyes were red, "Boss, this time the evidence is conclusive, two" He stalked, and his tone slipped several tunes, "The second prince must be implicated." ”
Gu Sheng glanced at him, rolled up the confession, and went straight to the palace.
The emperor had just come down from the court, and he looked a little tired.
When I saw him coming, I immediately smiled.
"You kid, you still have a little conscience, you know to come and thank you."
Gu Sheng knelt down with a gloomy face and presented the confession.
The emperor and other internal eunuchs took the confession, and said without any emotion: "Every time I see you like this, there is no good thing." ”
He snorted angrily and opened the confession, and his face changed as soon as he opened his eyes.
After reading it, he swept it angrily, and the tea cup on the corner of the table flew out, and it fell apart in an instant.
The inner prison in the room knelt down, and did not even dare to lift their eyelids.
The emperor's face turned blue with anger, and after a while, he leaned against the desk and said in a low voice: "Come on, pass on Jinyu." ”
The inner supervisor shrank his head and retreated outside in small steps.
The emperor looked at Gu Sheng slowly, "You go down, this matter must not be spread outside." ”
Gu Sheng clenched his fists and strode out.
In the distance, the second prince walked over, and when he saw Gu Sheng, he tilted his head sideways.
Gu Sheng crossed over to his side expressionlessly.
The second prince frowned and asked the inner eunuch, "My father called me because of Master Gu?" ”
Where did the inner supervisor dare to say anything, he hurriedly bowed his head and walked forward quickly.
The second prince's eyes were slightly sunken, thinking about some things he had done recently.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with each link, and there is nothing missing.
He steadied himself and strode in.
The Emperor looked at his son as he approached.
The second prince saluted in a proper manner, stood up and looked at the emperor.
The Emperor tugged at the corners of his mouth, trying to keep his voice calm, "What have you been up to lately?" ”
The second prince smiled, "It's those things in the Ministry of Rites." ”
"My son has never been in contact with him before, and when he took over, many things are still unclear, and I still need to ask you all for advice."
The second prince is gentle and elegant, whether he talks or behaves, he is so warm, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
The Emperor looked at him like this, and couldn't believe that he would make an enemy who sold iron ore and illicit salt to them.
The corners of the emperor's mouth moved, and he pointed to the case, "This, you come and take a look." ”
The second prince stepped forward as ordered, and when he saw the confession, he first looked at the payment of the lower head.
The name was unfamiliar, which reassured him a little.
He looked at the statement above, and when he finished reading it, he bowed his head to the ground, "Father, my son has never done it." ”
The emperor looked at the back of his head, and the smile on his lips was very ugly.
If he could, he would also be willing to believe that the confession was false.
However, the first time he saw the confession, he told the truth.
He was indeed the one behind it.
"Why?"
He asked in a low voice.
The second prince leaned down and called again and again.
"I ask you why?"
The emperor slammed the table and said sharply: "Or arrest all the people in your house and try them one by one." ”
"You should know Gu Sheng's methods, as long as he wants to, it is impossible for those people of yours not to spit out."
The second prince's body trembled violently, and after a long time, he slowly straightened up, tilted his head, and looked at the emperor who was glaring angrily.
"Father, I don't want to."
"But I can't help it."
He stood up little by little, and his demeanor gradually calmed down.
"For as long as I can remember, everyone has told me that I am a concubine, the son of the queen, and the future prince."
"Everyone flattered me, flattered me, and told me that the world would be mine."
"But they have forgotten that the ruler of this dynasty is you, my father."
"Since I was a child, I knew that you didn't like me, no matter what I did, you wouldn't look at me squarely, although you would laugh and praise me, but I knew that you were just dealing with ministers, letting them know your attitude, in fact, you never had me in your heart."
The emperor's brows moved slightly, and he wanted to say something.
